Who has the edge? Miami Dolphins vs. Denver Broncos

Start with Denver being No. 4 in the NFL in run defense (87.2 yards per game), and this matchup slants heavily toward the Broncos. Dolphins RB Kenyan Drake (200 yards rushing, 4.8 yards per carry) hasn’t shown he can carry a ground game, but that will likely be his job because of Damien Williams' injury. Drake can rip off big runs (108 yards have come on two runs), but consistency hasn’t been his strength. Miami averages 79.2 rushing yards per game, 29th in the NFL. On paper, this is a big mismatch. EDGE: BRONCOS

RB C.J. Anderson (585 yards rushing, 4.1 yards per game, 2 TDs) doesn’t scare anyone, but Miami has allowed more than 170 rushing yards in three of its last five games. The Dolphins are 25th in the league at 117.7 rushing yards per game. And now they’re without DE William Hayes (back). Denver is 16th in rushing at 107.7 yards per game. The front seven must take charge for Miami to win this matchup. EDGE: BRONCOS
